I think they should publicly execute them too. "This is what happens when you take Americans hostage." But NOOOO.... we have to put them in prison for 30+ years and who pays for it all? ....

Doesn't the DOJ bring them to the US for trial? What a waste of money.
"If you love wealth more than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, depart from us in peace. We ask not your counsel nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you. May your chains rest lightly upon you and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen."
-- Samuel Adams

So what are the actual laws in international waters? I mean, could people just bankroll a group of guys to patrol the area and take care of business on the down low privateer style?
I'm also sorry to say, but they deserve what happened. If you have more money than sense and think sailing your yacht off the coast anywhere in that area is a good idea well...good luck. These people have no money, no food, no future. They will take your shit and kill you without a second thought. The world's oceans are huge and thanks to modern knowledge you can go anywhere, so maybe try to avoid the place that is known for taking your type hostage.
Also, the pirates should be thrown overboard to drown.
I wouldn't go so far to say they deserve it but it is not unexpected that it happened. They had a boat full of bibles so obviously they were over there trying to do some good.

I don't take that into consideration anymore. There have been multiple attempts of drug/arms running before using Bibles as the legitimate cover. Not saying that is what the people were doing, I'm just saying that the Bible angle has nothing to do with the story. Stay away from hostile areas, if you have to go there, get governmental backed support.... no support, no-go.
I also think the pirates should be executed on sight. They have nothing to negotiate with now that the civilians are murdered. Kill 'em all and sink the yacht.
